The driver apparently lost control of her Nissan Pathfinder, which first sped straight through a lot anchored by a Dunkin Donuts at Marion Place around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, responders said.
It then smashed between two Dumpsters, sending them flying, and careened over a short wall before rolling onto its side in a lot anchored by a Dairy Queen and the Circle Cycle repair shop.
The driver was hospitalized with what were considered relatively minor injuries after she emerged from the wreckage, responders said.
"It's a miracle no one was hit," one said. "Any closer to lunchtime and that place would've been much busier."
